ABOUT THE TIME MACHINE
ABOUT
THE TIME MACHINE
"The music that touches you in your youth is magnified as you get older. Each record can be a virtual time machine - all you need is to hear a second or two and you go back to that place and time when you first heard it. It's a brilliant feeling when music touches you so profoundly and stays with you through time." - Rob Halford of Judas Priest.
I love the concept that music is the closest thing we have to a time machine. We hear older songs that bring us back to a time and place of when we first remember hearing them, or perhaps what was a (hopefully) time and place in our past the song recalls, such as meeting a special person.
With that in mind, I reach out to the audience with songs that were special to me from my past, in the hopes that they might have been special to you at some time in some way. Armed with an acoustic guitar, a mic and backing tracks, my goal is to recreate, as best I can, the songs as the audience remembers them but in a live setting, with live lead vocals and rhythm guitar accompaniment.
